T1 - Three-dimensional imaging of hydrogen blister in iron with neutron tomography JF - Acta materialia N2 - We investigated hydrogen embrittlement and blistering in electrochemically hydrogen-charged technical iron samples at room temperature. Hydrogen-stimulated cracks and blisters and the corresponding hydrogen distributions were observed by neutron tomography. Cold neutrons were provided by the research reactor BER II to picture the sample with a spatial resolution in the reconstructed three-dimensional model of ~25 µm. We made the unique observation that cracks were filled with molecular hydrogen and that cracks were surrounded by a 50 µm wide zone with a high hydrogen concentration. The zone contains up to ten times more hydrogen than the bulk material. The hydrogen enriched zone can be ascribed to a region of increased local defect density. Hydrogen also accumulated at the sample surface having the highest concentration at blistered areas. The surfaces of the brittle fractured cracks showed micropores visualized by scanning electron microscopy. The micropores were located at grain boundaries and were surrounded by stress fields detected by electron backscattered diffraction. The cracks clearly originated from the micropores.

Therefore TRIP-steels are widely used in the automobile industries. The aim of this work is to study the stability of involved phases during heating and to identify the kinetics of the occuring phase transformations. For that purpose, in-situ diffraction measurements, using high energy synchrotron radiation were conducted. The analysis revealed the decomposition of the metastable austenitic phase into carbide and ferrite along the heating process and the regeneration of the austenite by further heating of the sample.

Dies wirkt sich maßgeblich auf die nach dem Schweißen vorliegenden Eigenspannungen aus. Obwohl dazu zahlreiche Veröffentlichungen vorliegen, blieben die Wirkzusammenhänge zwischen Umwandlungstemperatur und Schweißeigenspannungen bislang ungeklärt. Aus diesem Grund wurde in der vorliegenden Arbeit ein Versuch in einer Großprüfanlage durchgeführt, um den Einfluss der Martensitumwandlung während des Mehrlagenschweißens zu analysieren. Die In-Prozess-Beobachtung der auftretenden Kräfte und Momente offenbarte, dass die Eigenspannungsreduktion vom jeweils umwandelnden Volumen abhängt. Die Analyse der Schweißeigenspannungen verdeutlichte, dass die angestrebte Eigenspannungsbeeinflussung durch den Zusatzwerkstoff stark von den Randbedingungen (d. h.

N2 - Controlling the level of mostly detrimental residual stresses already during the welding process would be highly attractive as time and cost consuming post processing may be prevented. Innovative Low Transformation Temperature (LTT-) filler materials are specially designed for Controlling weld residual stresses by means of adjusted martensite formation already during welding. Numerous publications can be found on this issue, but they provide only little insight into the interaction between martensite formation and resulting welding residual stresses. Within this study a component weld test was performed in a special large-scale testing facility. In-situ load analysis revealed that the amount of stress reduction during deposition of the individual weld runs is dependent on the weld volume undergoing phase transformation related to the shrinking volume. The residual stresses found alter welding show that the desired residual stress control by using LTT alloys is sensitive to welding boundary conditions (i. e. weld geometry, plate thickness) and to be evaluated separately for varying weld scenarios.

A1 - Kromm, Arne A1 - Kannengießer, Thomas T1 - Residual stress in steel fusion welds joined using low transformation temperature (LTT) filler material JF - Materials science forum N2 - Welding residual stress is of major concern for structural integrity assessment in industrial components. Shear and volume strains resulting from the austenite-martensite-transformation affect the development of residual stress during welding. Controlling the phase transformation allows adjustment of the welding residual stress. Low transformation temperature (LTT) weld filler materials exhibiting reduced MS-temperatures allow postponing the phase transformation. The associated strain arising from the delayed transformation compensates for the thermal contraction strains and as such may reduce tensile or even introduce compressive residual stress. In this article we discuss the tri-axial residual stress distribution in 15 mm S690Q steel plates joined with LTT filler materials with 10 wt% Cr and a Ni-content that varies from 8 to 12 wt%. Using complementary synchrotron X-ray and neutron diffraction stress analysis the macroscopic residual stress was derived from the phase specific lattice strain and phase fraction of martensite and retained austenite, respectively. The local phase specific unstrained lattice parameters were determined using stress relieved combs. The investigation revealed increasing phase fraction of retained austenite with increasing Ni-content. Further, independent of the Ni-content in each weld in the fusion zone, significant compressive residual stresses were found in the longitudinal direction, which are balanced by tensile residual stresses in the heat affected zone (HAZ). In the weld transverse and normal direction the stress distribution is qualitatively similar but less in magnitude. The increased amount of retained austenite reduces the compressive stress arising from shear and volume strains during the delayed phase transformation and therefore no significant increase in compression was observed for decreasing MS-temperatures.

As a consequence, residual stresses have to be considered as design criterion. Moreover, it may be utilized to improve the material's performance. Low transformation temperature alloys are a smart approach to control the residual stresses already during the welding process avoiding time-consuming postweld treatments. This paper gives an overview about the progress made in research in this topic with special focus on residual stresses. Basics as well as important developments will be addressed.

T1 - Real time monitoring of phase transformation and strain evolution in LTT weld filler material using EDXRD JF - Journal of materials processing technology N2 - For a newly developed 10% Cr and 10% Ni low transformation temperature (LTT) weld filler material, the local phase transformation kinetics and the strain evolution during gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) under real welding conditions was studied. An experimental set-up and a measuring and evaluation strategy are presented to gain a real time insight into the welding process. The experiments were carried out at the beam line ID15@ESRF using a two detector EDXRD (energy dispersive X-ray diffraction) set-up and high energy synchrotron X-rays. The time-resolved diffraction analysis during welding was carried out locally throughout the weld in longitudinal as well as in transverse direction to the weld line to examine the interdependence of the strain state and the transformation kinetics. This comprehension is crucial for the optimization of the weld process, and thus for the tailoring of the resulting residual stress states, which is one of the main issues for the application of LTT alloys. Using the herein proposed approach EDXRD diffraction pattern can be monitored during real welding with a counting rate of 5 Hz. By means of the time resolved diffraction data the local transformation temperatures and times were determined and the local phasespecific strain evolutions are discussed with respect to the transformation rates and the time-delayed phase transformations.

The mechanical properties of the weld and the component safety have to meet the increased requirements of these steel grades. However, high residual stresses in welded components are detrimental to their safety and integrity. Analyses concerning weld stresses in high-strength steels welded under component related restraint conditions revealed that heat control significantly affects global and local stresses. This occurs especially in highly restrained joints due to superimposing local and global stresses and may cause crack-critical stress-levels. In this study weld tests were performed with plates of high-strength steel in a special test facility. The experimental setup allowed transferring defined restraint conditions to the test welds similarly to real components. Temperature and reaction forces due to restraint were observed online while welding and cooling of multilayer-component MAG-welds. Mobile X-ray diffraction was used for local stress determination in the weld seam areas of the restrained specimens. It was found that interpass temperature has a major influence on the local and global welding forces and stresses. Thus, among the analysed results especially transverse residual stresses of the heat affected zone were strongly affected.

T1 - Multiaxiale Belastungsanalyse an dickwandigen Bauteilschweißungen aus 13CrMoV9-10 T2 - DVS Congress 2014 - Große Schweißtechnische Tagung N2 - Große Materialstärken und komplexe Strukturen bewirken eine erhebliche Schrumpfbehinderung der Schweißnaht. Die aus dem Schweißprozess resultierenden multiaxialen Belastungen tragen maßgeblich zur Gesamteigenbeanspruchung einer Schweißkonstruktion bei und lassen sich nur unter realen Fertigungsbedingungen analysieren. Zur wirklichkeitsnahen Simulation der komplexen Steifigkeitsverhältnisse realer Bauteile wurden hierzu in einer speziellen 3D-Prüfanlage UP-Mehrlagenschweißungen am warmfesten Stahl 13CrMoV9-10 durchgeführt. Während der schweißtechnischen Fertigung sowie der Abkühlung auf Raumtemperatur wurden die Proben an der freien Ausdehnung und Schrumpfung gehindert. Der Einfluss der Wärmeführung, d.h. Streckenenergie (E) und Vorwärm-/Zwischenlagentemperatur (T(Pli>), auf die resultierende Bauteilbeanspruchung wurde durch in-situ Messungen der Reaktionskräfte (Fy) und Biegemomente (Mx) während des Schweißens und der anschließenden Wasserstoffarmglühung untersucht. Sowohl die Reaktionskräfte als auch die Biegemomente steigen mit zunehmender Vorwärmtemperatur an und somit erhöht sich die Beanspruchung des Wurzelbereiches. Während die Vorwärm-/Zwischenlagentemperatur einen signifikanten Einfluss auf die resultierenden Reaktionskräfte hat, ist der Einfluss auf die Biegemomente nach Abkühlung auf Raumtemperatur vernachlässigbar. Eine Erhöhung der Streckenenergie wirkt sich nur geringfügig auf die Höhe der Endreaktionskraft aus, beeinflusst aber signifikant das resultierende Biegemoment nach erfolgter Abkühlung auf Raumtemperatur.

Dazu werden zunehmend hochfeste Feinkornbaustähle mit Dehngrenzen ≥ 690 MPa eingesetzt, wodurch eine Gewichtsreduzierung von 30 % bis 50 % und eine Kostenersparnis von 5 % bis 15 % erreicht werden kann. Das Potential hochfester Feinkornbaustähle ist unter Beachtung der heutigen Richtlinien und Regelwerke jedoch nicht ohne weiteres nutzbar. Durch das Forschungsvorhaben wurde der Einfluss der Wärmeführung auf die Eigenspannungsausbildung und Kaltrissbildung unter Berücksichtigung realitätsnaher Steifigkeitsbedingungen untersucht. Auf der Grundlage dieser Erkenntnisse wurde ein Beitrag zur Verbesserung der Verarbeitungsrichtlinien erarbeitet, welche dem Verarbeiter eine sichere schweißtechnische Verarbeitung bei verbesserter Ausnutzung der Materialeigenschaften ermöglicht. Vor allem die Tragfähigkeit und die Sicherheit der Schweißverbindung bestimmen die Bemessung der Konstruktion und somit den nachhaltigen und ökonomischen Einsatz dieser Güten. Der Zusammenhang zwischen der Höhe der entstehenden Eigenspannungen und der Wärmeführung in realen Konstruktionen ist zurzeit nur qualitativ überschaubar und führt zu einer eher konservativen Auslegung heutiger Schweißkonstruktionen. Die wirtschaftliche Verarbeitung hochfester Stähle wird neben dem Erreichen anforderungsgerechter mechanischer Eigenschaften im Schweißnahtbereich vor allem durch die Vermeidung von Kaltrissen bestimmt. Die diesbezüglichen Empfehlungen in den geltenden Regelwerken beruhen jedoch vornehmlich auf Erkenntnissen aus Laborschweißungen an Kleinproben unter freier äußerer Schrumpfung. Die Hauptursachen für die Entstehung von Eigenspannungen wie inhomogene, lokale Erwärmung und Abkühlung der schweißnahtnahen Bereiche und insbesondere die konstruktive Schrumpfbehinderung infolge umgebender Montagegruppen werden damit jedoch nicht abgebildet. Der Einfluss der Wärmeführung, insbesondere der lokalen Vorwärmung, auf die Eigenbeanspruchung einer Konstruktion ist derzeit weitgehend unbekannt. Ziel des Forschungsvorhabens war es, den Einfluss der Wärmeführung auf die Eigenspannungsausbildung in geschweißten Konstruktionen zu quantifizieren sowie Aussagen zur Beeinflussung und Absenkung der Eigenspannungen und somit der Gesamteigenbeanspruchung von Schweißkonstruktionen zu erarbeiten. Dazu wurden durch die sukzessive Steigerung des Einspanngrades der Zusammenhang zwischen Wärmeführung und resultierender Eigenspannung unter zusätzlicher Schrumpfbehinderung geklärt. Ferner wurde die Übertragbarkeit der den Regelwerken zugrundeliegenden Kleinprobenergebnisse auf reale Konstruktionen untersucht. Mithilfe systematischer Klein- und Großlastschweißversuche an definiert schrumpfbehinderten Proben konnte der Einfluss der Wärmeführung sowohl auf die lokalen nahtnahen Eigenspannungen als auch globale Eigenbeanspruchungen durch Reaktionsspannungen analysiert werden. Es zeigte sich, dass eine Reduktion der lokalen Eigenspannungen und der Eigenbeanspruchung von geschweißten Konstruktionen durch eine geringere Wärmeeinbringung möglich ist. Eine Absenkung der Zwischenlagentemperatur erwies sich dabei unter anderem als besonders günstig. Damit ist es möglich vorhandene Wärmeführungskonzepte für hochfeste Stähle zu optimieren und dadurch die Kaltrissbildung zu vermeiden.

T1 - In situ measurements of hydrogen diffusion in duplex stainless steels by neutron radiography T2 - In-situ studies with photons, neutrons and electrons scattering II N2 - Hydrogen embrittlement (HE) is a widely known phenomenon and under investigation already for more than a century. This phenomenon, though thoroughly studied, is not yet completely understood, and so far, there are several suggested mechanisms that try to explain the occurrence of HE. One important factor of understanding the HE phenomenon and predicting hydrogen-assisted failure is the descent knowledge about the hydrogen transport behaviour in the material. Neutron radiography is a proven method for tracking hydrogen diffusion and it was applied successfully in various research studies. In the presented study, we examined the hydrogen effusion behaviour in duplex stainless steel by means of neutron radiography and calculated the effective diffusion coefficient from the obtained transmission images.

In this contribution, the beamline EDDI in BESSY II instrument in Berlin was used in order to investigate the influence of hydrogen upon the residual stresses state existing in a Supermartensitic stainless steel sample. The method used for investigating the residual stresses is the “sinus square ψ” method. This method involves the usage of high energy X-ray diffraction in order to measure the residual stress state and magnitude. It was found that hydrogen presence has a significant influence upon the magnitude of the residual stresses, as its value decreases with high hydrogen content. This effect is reversible, as hydrogen desorbs from the sample the residual stress magnitude gains its initial value before hydrogen charging.

The causes of hot cracking can ultimately be attributed to the occurrence of metallurgical effects and to structural loads. More than 140 hot cracking test procedures have hitherto been developed for determining the hot cracking resistance. In principle, they are divided in self-restraint and externally loaded hot cracking tests with diverse process variants. Only some of the hot cracking tests are international standardized. Although various factors are known that encourage or prevent hot cracking, it is often not possible even with defined welding conditions to draw immediate conclusions about the hot cracking resistance of a welded component alone from a metallurgical composition of the base and filler materials. Based on an evaluation of the existing theories relating to hot cracking susceptibility assessment, this study summarizes the major hot cracking test procedures and highlights the application limits of the test procedures by presenting overviews along with explanations. It shows that weld hot cracking tests can generally be used to rank materials, welding consumables, and welding conditions. The evaluation of hot cracking test results and of their transferability among one another and to real components always requires consideration of the close relationships between metallurgy, welding process, and parameters, respectively, and prevailing restraint conditions.

T1 - High-energy synchrotron study of the stress-strain behavior of hydrogen-charged high strength structural steel T2 - In-situ studies with photons, neutrons and electrons scattering II N2 - High strength structural steels are susceptible to hydrogen embrittlement. A critical combination of stress, amount of diffusible hydrogen and microstructure is believed to cause cold cracking. Especially during welding of high strength structural steels high tensile residual stresses may develop. Therefore, a feasibility study was conducted using synchrotron X-ray diffraction in order to analyze the stress–strain behavior during tensile loading. For that purpose two types of steel showing different hardening mechanisms were used. On the one hand a thermo-mechanically treated S1100MC and on the other hand a quenched and tempered S1300Q were chosen. The samples were electrochemically charged with hydrogen and subsequently stored in liquid nitrogen to prevent effusion. Tensile tests of the samples were conducted in a special load frame allowing for tilting the samples while applying constant loads. High energy synchrotron radiation was used for energy dispersive X-ray diffraction (EDXRD) analysis in transmission geometry. This method offers the possibility for measuring several diffraction lines of all contributing crystalline phases of the material. Strains as well as stresses applying the sin²ψ-method were determined for varying load situations. This feasibility study shows how the interaction of hydrogen and the stress/strain response may be assessed by diffraction methods. Examples are presented showing that hydrogen alters the load distribution as well as the strain behavior between different lattice planes in high strength steels.

Nur aus dem Zusammenwirken aller Einflussfaktoren lassen sich Strategien ableiten, mit deren Hilfe die Festigkeitseigenschaften bzw. die Lebensdauer von Schweißkonstruktionen in einem Maße verbessert werden können, die den Einsatz höherfester Werkstoffe rechtfertigen und somit deren Leichtbaupotenzial voll ausgenutzt werden kann. Vorgestellt werden einige beispielhafte Untersuchungen an Schweißverbindungen aus höherfesten Feinkornbaustählen zu Interaktionen der Haupteinflussgrößen auf die Kaltrissbildung.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The increased utilisation of higher-strength steels and filler materials necessitates more profound understanding of the connections between the welding process, the heat input, the cooling conditions and the resulting metallurgical processes in the weld and its surroundings. Strategies which help to improve the strength properties and service lives of welded structures to such an extent that the utilisation of higher-strength materials can be justified and their lightweight construction potential can thus be exploited to the full can only be derived from the interaction between all the influencing factors. Examples of a few investigations on welded joints between higher- strength fine-grained structural steels with regard to the interactions between the main variables influencing the cold cracking are presented in this article.
